I've seen this before. Although the words are spelled incorrectly, as long the the correct beginning and ending letters are there, the brain picks up the correct word.

According to testers people do not read all the letters in the words - they glance at the letters and see the words even if the words are mis spelled with the right number of letters and also if it doesn't have the right number of letters!@

it has something to do with the mind being able to recognize an entire word as a whole (instead of individal letters) as long as the first and last letters are there.

in speed test reading you have to skim the lines. the brain would pick it up even if it is spelt wrong.

yeah, I could see as I was reading (really fast) that they were not spelled correctly, but your brain compensates and makes as much sense as it can from it
